It's been 14 seasons since Clark Wendlandt last stood on a Walmart FLW Tour stage and hoisted a tournament championship trophy. Since that time, the Texas pro has experienced ups and downs, including an Angler of the Year title (his third) in 2009 and a major medical issue that sidelined him for most of the 2014 season.
All that's in the past now, however, and Wendlandt is right back where he belongs in the world of bass fishing - in first place after the final day on the Potomac River in the Walmart FLW Tour event presented by Ranger Boats.
